They light up the screens as well as they did in the first part. Maari is best known for his comical comrades Sanikezhamai (Robo Shankar) and Adithaangi (Vinoth).
A more gripping revenge plot could have made this hero-villain drama a little more exciting. Though it allows Maari to fall and rise and spices up the story, it is not thoroughly entertaining to watch. Intimidating tattoos, making him read books of a certain kind and just making him repeat dialgoues in which he claims that he is the god of death makes it seem pretentious to an extent. But the problem arises when this is staged in a very artificial manner. We get to sense that Balaji Mohan has tried hard to establish an almost-invincible villain to battle someone like Maari. The film is made on the typical commercial template with scenes shifting from action to comedy to romance to emotion, and repeat. Instead, we're left to deal with a few new characters like Kalai (Krishna), Anandhi (Sai Pallavi), and Beeja: The God of Death (Tovino Thomas).
Therefore, in this film, we don't have a particular character arc for the lead. With Maari, director Balaji had established the kind of person Maari is, how he is treated by the people around him, how he values other relationships and so on. Tovino Thomas is the antagonist of this sequel that has music by Yuvan Shankar Raja. Maari 2 has Sai Pallavi playing the female lead while Krishna and Varalaxmi play important roles. The team is back with the sequel Maari 2 and let's find out how the film is. The character was well received by the audience and managed to garner a cult following for the look, dialogues, and behavior. Back in 2015, director Balaji Mohan and Dhanush collaborated for the commercial gangster flick Maari.
